The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.

Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Mass effect maps

So, I have been absent for a while, and well, I am trying my hand at writing a set of rules to allow me and my friends to play a Pen-&-Paper version of Mass Effect, and where would the fun be without a cool set of maps, so for your viewing please my first Mass Effect maps, the GALAXY MAP. Soon to come the various systems and Relays maps.

So, still working on my MASS EFFECT Project, and part of it was locating some images of the various ships and figuring out a scale of the various. Thanx to some excellent images by Toodon8 over at deviant art (http://troodon80.deviantart.com/gallery/32481208) I modified some of his comparison charts to have color images of the various ships and vehicles and provided some scales to them.
